I used distress ink for the pink background after masking Annie - You're Sweet.
I then stamped the rose at random places and also making sure to rotate it
and Bam! You have yourself a custom background or wall paper. :P
I stamped Annie with Memento Desert Sand and colored her with Prismacolor pencils.

Here is some detail of the hair and face.
I'm still working on my coloring techniques but I hope you can find
some inspiration by it. I did not use any blending mediums other than pencils to
show that you don't need oils or mineral spirits to blend color pencils.Make sure to pull out your Pink, White and Red crafty goodiesto play along with us on the challenge. I can't wait to check out your creations.

Here is what I created for January!

I used the adorable Chloe & Sam - Love you and colored them up with my Copics. I just love how she's holding on to Sam! For my card base, I used the Bracket Label card base from SVG Cutting Files to give the card a little visual interest too - it's always fun to create an A2 card that isn't the traditional rectangle. I added a sentiment from my stash and created the perfect card. :)

This Red/White/Pink Theme challenge is perfect for cards you need to create for Valentine's Day so we can't wait to see what you create!

Happy Sunday! Today I'm am sharing a card I made for my little Brother David Meza and his girlfriend Lala. I'm also happy to say that they are expecting a little baby boy, due sometime around my birthday in April. :P Woot Woot! I can't wait to meet another nephew! I wanted to personalize a Valentine Card for them. My brother is a photographer, biker, teacher, public speaker, hipster and all sorts of other things but his main profession is photography.

I colored everything with Copic markers this time and I made sure to color Lala's hair in Warm Grays but David's hair is jet black and very shiny so I used the Cool Grays for his hair. The papers are from Recollections Valentine 6x6 paper pad it's an older pad but I gotta use it to buy more right?

Hello everyone! Melissa here from Doxie Mel Designs with a new card for you today. I colored "Jessica - For You" with Copic Markers. Since yellow is my favorite color.. I colored up her roses in yellow. The sentiment is included with the stamp set and I stamped that on a die from Jaded Blossom, Charm Dies. The pattern paper is from Dear Lizzy's Serendipity collection. :)

Now, I'm going to have to let you in on a little secret: Melanie might be one of my favorite stamps in my Stamp Anniething collection (shhh! Don't tell the other girls I said so!). She's so super easy to color (even for the timid beginner!) AND she's super easy to paper piece (for those colorers who need a break from coloring!). I just LOVE her!

To find out a little more on how I created this card, be sure to check out my blog for details! Thanks for stopping by!
